The Pope is Just Wrong about Economics

Pope Francis' Erroneous Economic Pontifications 

Once Again, Pope Francis. Excerpt:

It is interesting that the Pope refers to compassion in the way he does, given that the contradiction that is the “welfare state” has not only ruined the most needy and has led to growing exclusion, but has degraded the notion of charity which refers to the voluntary surrender of personal resources and not to a third party forcibly taking something from someone else’s labor.
